in Introduce Yourself
im starting my weight loss journey AGAIN. It's not that I don't know how to eat right or exercise. I was weighing 325lbs and I got down to 250. I've done that twice now. But eventually, slowly but surely, I give up and end up right back where I started. I currently weigh about 310lbs and I'm sick and tired of being sick and tired. So here's round three. I hope this will be a knock out.
Any tips on how to stay motivated down the stretch would be helpful.

    Hi RightWeigh and KandiKan! I know exactly what you mean. I have an "all or nothing" attitude, which gets me into trouble. RightWeigh, round three will be your final round. Like KandiKan said, we can do this together. Baby steps. One step in front of the other, and celebrate the small victories. We can do this!

    ugh, I know the feeling... 2 years ago I was 100 lbs lighter, changed gyms (biggest mistake ever) and just slowly stopped everything from healthy eating habits to working out and boom... here I am 100 lbs heavier

    hopefully this time I've learned enough from past mistakes so that this will be the last roller coaster ride

    Preach RightWeigh. Sick and tired of being sick and tired.

    What's worked well for you in the past? Where have you struggled? I know for me it's making time for myself because I take so much time taking care of others.

    After losing my Momma two months ago, things have shifted hard for me. I'm so ready to put myself first.
